As Sam Bankman-Fried is found guilty on all seven counts in the biggest crypto-related trial to date, I'm joined by author Zeke Faux, whose scintillating new book Number Go Up: Inside Crypto's Wild Rise and Staggering Fall has been the must-read book of the summer for me.
Equal parts hilarious, head-scratching and powerful, Zeke does a tremendous job of taking us inside the crazy world of crypto - starting with a subject close to my own heart: Tether.
Zeke follows the trail of extraordinary characters who inhabit the ecosystem of the world's biggest stablecoin on a journey that brings him into contact with all the major figures in the Cryptoverse and on a wild ride to ApeFest in Manhattan.
Whether you're a crypto believer or a fellow skeptic, the book and this conversation are a rare treat.
